    I remember you mentioning on stream a while back about your impressions on diversifying the channel. A "Taeha Talks" is something i believe a lot of viewers would love to see. It allows you to expand more on your channel and express your other interests! I'd love to see how this goes!

    I really like the Taeha Tallks segment. I have quit the hobby months ago but i regularly check up on what's happening and from stream highlights and sound tests to this? I really really love the concept and what you're doing. Actual in depth review of a board from one of the OGs of the hobby is such a delight to watch + the ambiance and aesthetic. Please continue doing this whether you separate the talks part and the board review or join em up i'd gladly watch them both.

    Enjoyed the hell out of this video! Your Mode Envoy review was very grounded, detailed & thorough.
    The ‘Taeha Talks’ piece was a great surprise! Loved the idea of a 1on1 or Q&A with you. A podcast would be such an amazing thing, I think it’s a very popular medium and is something that if set up correctly, would bring on a whole new audience. Whether it’s a variety show where keyboards, photography, music is discussed, or something more focused. I think it would be another way to enjoy your content without having to be live for your streams and in addition to your videos ❤️ overall, can count on my support!

    I had pulled the trigger on one of these a few months ago, just waiting for it to arrive at this point. It'll be my 4th keeb. I honestly can't wait to build it when it comes in.
    Edit: After watching the video. I genuinely really liked this format. Your style of presentation makes it very easy to just...enjoy and follow. The passion that you generally hold in regards to keyboards means that whatever other hobbies that you present, will probably have around the same level of passion.

    I really liked the end segment! The music was also really relaxing. Also, thanks for sharing your Japanese City Pop playlist on one of your streams a while back- I've been listening to it every now and then, and it never fails to put me in a good mood. Recently, I started looking to expand my music taste beyond J-Pop/Rock, so I look forward to your other suggestions as well.
    I think it'd be cool to see some of your other hobbies on the main channel as well; stuff like photography and vinyl have always been interesting to me, but I never really got into it. One of my recent hobbies (more like addiction) has been Gunpla. Fun stuff! Anyways, hope to catch another stream soon. Not really an active viewer, but I really enjoy the content when I get the chance to watch it.

  • @kipp14
    @kipp14 Před rokem +4

    The only thing I'd say about the new mode keyboard is it probably has a good ability to be muted with both sets of foam installed which I personally like. The only thing I'm kind of curious about the lack of aluminum low profile cases for sale. It would be interesting to see why they're not as used as full height cases. I love all three sets of keycaps as well so pluses all around

    • @Mustanggt505
      @Mustanggt505 Před 10 měsíci

      yeah honestly I realized that I probably won't build an actual 200$ plus keyboard until have some good money laying around even then idk because for me I can get everything I want in a 100$ keyboard even hotswap and pre lubed for that price. After seeing how much cheaper it has gotten I just cant see the point of spending that much, I get it but its just not for me. I got a TH80 on prime day for 75$ down from 90$ I know its not all that and that people would probably not even call it custom but its perfect for me, in the future I'm definitely going to be trying out new switches . Also my buddy has GMMK pro with lubed pandas and my keyboard feels very very similar its just missing a slight metal sound and feel.

    As a brand designer, I've noticed that the mechanical keyboard landscape is filled with a many great keyboards, but there seems to be a lack of storytelling behind them. Introducing a meaningful storytelling element to the keyboards could be a fantastic way to introduce the beginners into the hobby.

    It's an exciting time in the keyboard hobby! Folks who dipped their toes in during the pandemic have figured out whether or not it's for them and now we're seeing who will be sticking around, as well as seeing a lot of pandemic era groupbuys being fulfilled. Economically speaking, it's hard to be fully immersed like we were during the days of monetary abundance in the pandemic, but I also think that's a good thing; it makes it so we're more thoughtful or deliberate with how we participate and will allow for diversity in the ways people participate in the hobby.

    Would love to see you do some coffee content too Taeha! I see so many friends in the hobby who also go down the coffee rabbit hole - I think the mindfulness of making a cup of coffee is so similar to that of building a board.

    would you say the hollowness goes away from the case if you use the PC case instead of the alu case on the enovy? Great review :)

    The keyboard looks great! Do you know if the pcb is ISOas well or ASNI only? :)

    Thanks for the recommendation. I've been listening to a lot of Glen Check the past year (Korean indie band as well), so Adoy is right in my alley.
